India pacer Jasprit Bumrah remains unavailable for the Men In Blue as far as the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and the ODI series are concerned. A short while back, the Indian Cricket Board announced the squads for two Tests and three-match ODI series. For the remaining two games of the BGT series, the Indian squad remains unchanged as the home team is leading the series 2-0.
On the other hand, Jaydev Unadkat, who was part of the team for the first Test, has gotten an ODI recall. Since 2013, the left-arm pacer hasn't played a 50-over game for India. Apart from him, the rest of the squad consists of familiar faces
Team India squad for 3rd and 4th Test: Rohit Sharma (C), KL Rahul, S Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, KS Bharat (wk), Ishan Kishan (wk), R Ashwin, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, R Jadeja, Mohd Shami, Mohd Siraj, Shreyas Iyer, Suryakumar Yadav, Umesh Yadav, Jaydev Unadkat
ODI Squad: Rohit Sharma (C), S Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Suryakumar Yadav, KL Rahul, Ishan Kishan (wk), Hardik Pandya (VC), R Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav, W Sundar, Y Chahal, Mohd Shami, Mohd Siraj, Umran Malik, Shardul Thakur, Axar Patel, Jaydev Unadkat
Jasprit Bumrah hasn't played since September 2022
Meanwhile, the five-time Indian T20 League winner hasn't played a single game since September last year. At the time, he played a T20I against the Aussies. However, after the game, he was ruled out of the series due to a stress fracture. Subsequently, he also missed the 20-20 World Cup 2022 flight.
Meanwhile, in the recently-conducted sting on Chetan Sharma, he spoke about Bumrah's fitness. The former said “Jasprit Bumrah was unable to bend as he had a major injury other than that there are one or two players who take injections in private and they are fit to play.” said Chetan Sharma.
This is how Twitter reacted
No Jasprit Bumrah in ODI series against Australia. Not sure if he will play IPL this year. I'm keeping my hopes very low.

My stance on Jasprit Bumrah has always been clear:
1. Should take time to get fit, miss IPL if needed.
2. If plays all IPL games and misses WTC final, i ll be just another furious Indian fan criticizing him.
If people still feel i have a bias, I can't change the thinking 👍 pic.twitter.com/G1AhW6wE6V
